Strangely there are no quiz league matches this week. The Tuesday league season is now over, and it's our week off in the Monday league. The current Monday league table:
| P | W | D | L | Scr | Pts | |
| Astley Bridge Conservative Club | 10 | 8 | 0 | 2 | 650 | 16 |
| Sweet Green Trinity | 10 | 8 | 0 | 2 | 575 | 16 |
| Dunscar Conservative Club | 10 | 7 | 0 | 3 | 609 | 14 |

| Breightmet Conservative Club | 10 | 4 | 0 | 6 | 489 | 8 |
| Sweet Green Ramblers | 10 | 3 | 0 | 7 | 492 | 6 |
| Chicken Runners | 10 | 2 | 0 | 8 | 464 | 4 |

Because there's no match tonight I can watch the second semi-final of University Challenge, and the first semi-final of Only Connect in which my Bolton quiz league rival Jenny Ryan will be featuring. Should be good - tune your television to BBC4 at 2030.
Finally, my former University Challenge team-mate Nick Dawson has had his book "Being Hal Ashby", a biography of the rebel Hollywood film director, nominated for the "Best Moving Image Book" award at the And/Or Book Awards. Well done to him. The presentation is apparently on 29th April.
